- the user if the user put the target heating object on another position by mistake, since the outer circumference of the combined heating unit is displayed on the top plate, the user easily recognizes the mistake. Of if the user turns on another heating key by mistake, since the outer circumference of the combined heating unit is displayed on the top plate, the user easily recognizes the mistake. Above all, it is safe because current is not supplied to the heating coil on which the target heating object is not placed.
- the light-emission control unit 11b blinks the four light-emitting parts provided near the outer circumference of the combined heating coil for starting heating (S113A), and displays warning in the portion coupling the plurality of heating coils, and heating of the plurality of heating coils specified by a command for starting heating is not started.
- the load checking unit 18 checks that the target heating object 8 is not placed on any one of the plurality of heating units for starting heating (No at S112A)
- the light-emission control unit 11b turns on only the light-emitting parts at the side on which the target heating object 8 is placed out of the four light-emitting parts provided near the outer circumference of the combined heating coil for starting heating, and blinks the light-emitting parts at the side on which the target heating object 8 is not placed, and the heating control unit 11a may start heating only the heating coil on which the target heating object 8 is placed.
